I imagine I am in the position of anyone who has newly discovered information. Once I began to see the images of farm animal abuse I cannot unsee them. I think everyone should see them; but they won't. I want everyone who eats meat to have to face the images; but they won't.
So I turned to the internet to find out how others recommend we deal with this and learned two good points:
1. Look how long it took you to make the changes in your life that brought you to a plant-based diet.
2. Respect others and their choices if you expect to be respected.
I interpret this as meaning that I should do my own thing, lead by example if I can, and make food that is so damn fabulous people will be amazed.
Because turning to a low fat plant-based diet has turned my medical condition around for the better, this might be my strongest card, the health card.
So I know to take it slow, shut up sometimes and just keep plugging away in a mindful, respectful way, making change where I can.
If you have any bright ideas please let me know.
